Peter Jackson is Live-Blogging The Hobbit's Final Shoot

Today marks the final day of shooting on The Hobbit, and director Peter Jackson is live-blogging the Wellington shoot on his Facebook page.

Production on The Hobbit began two years ago, while production on The Lord of The Rings trilogy began fourteen years ago. That's a long, long time for one guy to spend with Tolkien's material.

Jackson is a big advocate of documenting his processes for his fans, and it turns out live-blogging is something he's always wanted to do.

"Ever since starting these blogs, there's been something I thought I'd like to try one day (as well as answering the other 19 questions I owe you!), blogging throughout a shoot day in real time" posted Jackson on his Facebook page earlier today. "Try to give you all a feeling for what we deal with on an average day."

Jackson is shooting scenes for The Hobbit: There and Back Again, due for release in December 2014.
